Motivational Monday


Good Morning Friends and Family. 

I hope you are well after the holiday season.  Many of us have been back at the grind that is ‘LIFE’ since Christmas and need that Monday Motivation back in them to carry over throughout the week.  Again, this email is one of hundreds if not thousands that you may receive this week.  I challenge you to watch the clip, read, and listen.  Take the message you choose to receive and run with it throughout the week.  YOU have the ability to change lives in every interaction you have.  Equally important, the people you surround yourself with have the ability to change you.  

Here we go with Motivational Monday #3.


Some of you have most likely watched this clip when it was aired back in June.  What a powerful message.  This young boy, Matt, should be enough motivation for you to carry throughout the week and finish the race you are in strong.  Matt has ever reason not to run the race; however, the determination, resilience, strength, and courage he displays propel him to finish the race when all odds are stacked against him. 

There may be a time this week when something comes up and you want to quit.  There is a TEAM or COACH somewhere close to you whether you realize it or not just like the teacher and classmates were there for Matt.  That individual or individuals will push you to your end goal.  Conversely, you may be that coach or a member of that team.  Do not run and do not be afraid.  Receive the call for help and support that individual.  You were put in that situation for a reason.  

Challenge: Set short term goals this week for you to accomplish.  It may be something simple like opening a door for someone or buying a coffee for a friend.  It may be helping a co-worker complete their work if they are wearing their stress on their sleeve.  It may be simple words of encouragement.  It may be a reminder for you to complete something you have been consistently saying you are going to do but just never get around to it.  Set the goal and achieve the goal.  Don’t make this a secret.  Tell others your ambitions. 
Remember: Believe and you will achieve!

With Respect,
Dus
